“How can we be of service? [asks Sharon of the Grandmothers, and they answer] … Remember who you are, remember it. … The power each of [you] possesses is tremendous. [You] anchor the Net of Light for the whole planet. … From this place of inner power, we shall cast the Net of Light. As soon as [you] think about casting the Net of Light, we will do it.” – Sharon McErlane and the Grandmothers in “Our Love is Our Power” around p. 52

This morning I was still thinking about yesterday’s post on ‘being a vehicle for the Grandmothers’. I asked the Grandmothers for more clarification. I first imagined myself as being a car with one of the Grandmothers behind the wheel, but I quickly morphed into a horse. Ready to go for a ride. Waiting for the Grandmother on my back to spur me into action. And waiting. Impatiently. Until I gave it up and started grazing. Then, after a while (after I had completely forgotten about going for a ride), the meadow became a starry sky, with the stars swirling around like in a Van Gogh painting. After hanging out there for a while, the vortex sucked us into the Void. No stars, nothing. Just blackness.

I used to be afraid of nothingness, then I read in “A Call to Power” that nothingness contains the potential for everything. In my meditation, the horse I was was perfectly comfortable in the space of nothingness. I asked the Grandmothers what this had to do with being a vehicle and she/they answered, “This is the place where things are created.”

Then they showed me being the horse (native symbol for the messenger from Spirit to the material world), traveling from “the place where things are created”, back into the starry universe as we know it, and finally into my body where I stood up, greeted my sleepy children and gave them breakfast.

After this meditation, I opened the Grandmothers book at random and read the above passage. We are vehicles indeed. The Grandmothers need our help to anchor the Net of Light. I do not understand how this works in the practical sense, but clearly we humans are partners for God. It is our intention that guides God’s actions.

Think about that. If our intention guides God’s actions (if we think of the Net of Light and that intention is what guides the Grandmothers to cast the Net of Light) then we have their power within us. We can go to the place where things are created, and create harmony or disharmony. We can create peace or war. It is up to us. What kind of world do you want to live in?

Go to the place where things are created, and create the Net of Light so we can all live in love. That is all any of us truly desires. Money, yang-power, control, excitement: they are all nice for a while, but they are not deeply satisfying like love is.

Golden Eagle Feather

Golden eagle feathers are used in Native American ceremonies. The Grandmothers gave me the name "Golden Eagle Feather" before I knew anything about golden eagles. I'm growing into the name slowly. I offer my words here to anyone seeking love, rest and connection to the Divine.
